 ---------------------------- HISTORY ----------------------------

 The LACL series of conferences aims at providing a forum for the
 presentation and discussion of current research in all the formal
 and logical aspects of computational linguistics. It started as a
 workshop held in Nancy (France), in 1995. Due to its success, it
 was turned, the next year, into a international conference.
 LACL'96 and '97 have both been held in Nancy (France). LACL'98 has
 been held in Grenoble (France). Selected papers from LACL'95 appear
 in a special issue of Journal of Logic Language and Information,
 7(4), 1998. The proceedings of LACL'96 and 97 appear as volumes
 1328 and 1582 of Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence. The
 proceedings of LACL'98 are in press with the same series.


 ----------------------------- SCOPE -----------------------------

 Typical topics include, but are not limited to:

    Categorial grammars, Categorial type logics, Compositionality,
    Discourse representation theory, Dynamics, Feature Logics,

    inference, Learning theory, Linear logical frameworks, Minimalism,
